the weight of 29.260.433 Kilos imported, the Customs received
Ss6.334.070-: – so that on an amount where only Ss380.000
was received by the Customs on the raw material one of Ss850.000-
was paid to the Exporter; – and if the whole amount of Cotton
Wool had been manufactured and exported, – for the Six millions
received by the Customhouse, nearly 14 millions would have been
paid to the manufacturers.

The Bounties paid on the exportation of wrought Cottons, in
1831, were Ss978.30; the weight of which was 1.979.199 Kilos and
the raw Cottons imported were 28.229.487 Kilos which paid Duty
Ss6.020.443: – at the above rate, had all this Importation
been exported, in a manufactured shape, the Bounty on it
would have been Ss13.954.005.

The Government received on imported Wools, Ss4.246.021,
their weight being about 8 millions of Kilogrammes. The
export of manufactured Wool amounted, in 1830, to 955.617 Kilos,
so that the amount calculated on the weight imported, to which
the Exporter would have had a claim, on the ground of Duty paid,
would be about Ss500.000; – the fact being, that nearly four
times that amount, or Ss1.970.659-66s was paid to the Exporter; –
the Government not receiving more than one quarter of the
amount in Duty, which it allowed in Premium on the Shipment
of Woollens.
